Title: Nocardiosis from 1888 to 2017. Author: Fatahi-Bafghi M. Journal: Microb Pathog; 2018 Jan; 114():369-384. PubMed ID: 29146497. Abstract: The genus Nocardia is an aerobic bacterium, Gram-positive and catalase positive that is in Nocardiaceae family. This bacterium first described by Edmond Nocard in 1888 and is not in human commensal bacteria. To date, nocardiosis incidence is increasing due to increase population growth rate, increase in patients with immune disorder diseases and immunocompromised patients. We surveyed taxonomic position, isolation methods, phenotypic and molecular identification at the genus and species levels, antibiogram, treatment and epidemiology in the world from 1888 to 2017.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
